I can feel your pain, although both my parents are still alive, I sometimes take them for granted. I'm thankful enough because I still have a chance to appreciate them and show them I love them. I'm sorry that you have to go through all this but I'm sure your mom is quite happy where she is now and I think she is really proud of you

oh dear! thats a sad thing to happen. i know some important people cannot be replaced in your life . mothers are the ones to whom you are the closest hence u sometimes tend to take them for granted till they are gone.try and inculcate those values and good things your mother stood for .thats they way u can do good to her memories

My mom has been gone for 14 yeas and I still miss her! We were best friends....and did so very much together....I know how you are feeling about missing her but you can't beat yourself up about the amount of time you spent with her....just cherish the memories.

Sharon, I know that loosing your mom was hard, I lost both of my parents several years ago and it is normal to feel the way you do, and in many ways you will feel that way for years to come. You will come to cherish the times you did spend with your mom and know that she always wanted you to have your own life without her being the center of it. She only wanted you to be happy and do well in life. It is my prayer that you do that now, missing her is not going to make you happy so give the pain to God as much as humanly possible and move forward. That is what your Mother would have wanted for you. Work through the pain and be the person she would expect you to be. A mothers love is forever, just like Our Father's love and you will always be loved by her as you are by Him.

Hello Sharon, I want to extend my sympathy to you for loosing your mom. I also want to Welcome you to MyLot. I can totally relate because I lost my dad back in 2003. That empty feeling never goes away. It will always be there and you will always miss her no matter how much time passes. At least that's how it is for me. :( Just know that she is in a better place and you will get to see her again. She is your gardian angel. :) Watching over you all the time. I know it's easier said than done. Just pray that God gives you the strength to keep going. My prayers and thoughts are with you. Take care and happy MyLotting Olivia~

i can understand you wishing you spent more time with your mom. but really even if you had you would still be wishing that you had more time with her. so instead of wishing for more time remember the time you did spend with her and how much love she gave you. then take that love and pass it on to others that need some of a mothers love, because we all know that this is one of the best kinds of love. your mother will always be in your heart and she will always be that little voice in your head that tells you that its going to be ok all you need to do is look inside your heart and you will see

I'm sorry that you are having to deal with such a huge loss.It's perfectly normal to miss your mother and you will miss her all the rest of your days.You shouldn't harp off the things you didn't do enough of. You have to thrive off of the memories and the greatest moments that you shared with your mother. I know that it seems as if you didn't realize how much she meant to you until she was gone but honestly, you knew. She lived in your heart deeply before she passed and now that she has gone home, a piece of your heart has been taken. But understand that even though she isn't here in the physical, she is near you in the spirtual. Her soul still lives, the only thing that isn't with you is her shell. Everyone has a gaurdian angel and your mother is yours.
